your thoughts (rims)...

rnbboi · Post by **rnbboi** » Sat Apr 08, 2006 12:03 pm

I picked up a new set of rims last nite and put em on this morning. I took a couple of shots of before and after pics. Tell me your thoughts?

before:

After:

They look pretty nice

but I think i need a little bit of time to adjust to them. However I think a lower profile tyre will look much better - for either sets i guess...!

...but the good thing is, i still have the 'before' set in my room. kekekz.

both look

,though personally i like the before ones, get a new spoiler to complete it

I like the before one, don't worry about the spoiler, lower your car first to complete the "race" look ehhehe

the before one will look hot without spoiler i think.

the after one, maybe with a t's factory wing.

AFTER for sure. Good job.

The before rims are too dark for any car. They look like the're just dirty lol

Definatly after, but yeah, drop your profile and your suspension and yeah.... would look like my eclipse on Need for speed

Second look best I think, my girlfriend agrees.

Can you please tell me where you got the frontbar from?
All I can find from suppliers are Veilside Kits ;(

Definately the second set of mags.

Black wheels suck ass unless the rest of the car is completely mat black and stealth like.

thanx for feedback guys.

wellz, ive finally settled in with the new look

...will go for a lower profile tyre once this set of tyres wear out and will drop the car asap as soon as i get the $$ hehhez.

as for my front bar, i got it off the GB that occured a while ago.

However, I do believe u can get the bozz speed front bar from DMD.

Appreciate the feedback.

Hmm tough question JOeJOe. Yellow is a loud colour so you need rims that will match. Rims the exact same yellow could be interesting. It would be either dead set wrong or just brilliant and nothing in between though.

Other than that I like Speedy's range. See if any of their's takes your fancy...
